How does it make you feel when a pain specialist questions how you talk about your pain?

Have you experienced problems with doctors telling you how you should and shouldn't talk about pain?

We'd love to hear about your experiences for #PainAwarenessMonth #PAM2026

It happened to me in ER in Sept despite my pharmacy list.

This is what happened to me on Sept 5th when I forgot my meds at home at 3am and ended up being in ER for 24 hours. For the first five hours I was refused completely despite having my legit pharmacy med list on me with my doctor's name and only needing one tablet. 🤦

There were no referrals. I was told to "wait my turn" 🤷‍♀️ while hemorraging, and triaged as CTAS 3 (urgent) with 10/10 acute pain.
